# GSM8K Problem 2

A robe takes 2 bolts of blue fiber and half that much white fiber.  How many bolts in total does it take?

Reason step by step, then give ONLY the final answer on the last line as \boxed{ANSWER}.

<!-- imported from openai/gsm8k (test) -->

We are told:

- A robe takes **2 bolts of blue fiber**.
- It takes **half that much white fiber**.

"Half that much" refers to half of the blue fiber amount:

$$
\text{White fiber} = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 = 1 \text{ bolt}
$$

Now, total bolts = blue fiber + white fiber:

$$
2 + 1 = 3 \text{ bolts}
$$

\boxed{3}
